Question 36718: ok. i dont know if this is what im working with but it's close enough. (on the page it says families of linear graphs)it says graph each pair of equations. Describe any similarities or differences and explain why they are a family of graphs. theres problems like y=-4x + 1, and i know how to do them, but the
y=-4x-2
problems like y=x+4 or, y=3x or y=1/2x=1/2 and other stuff like that i dont
y=5x+4 y=4x y=2x=2
understand. please show that work too that way ill know how to do it and such.(and the graph so ill know how to do that too) and if you could id appreciate it if you explained it too. (those problems i gave u are actual problems i need help with too.) thanks so much. please try to let me know as soon as possible. thanks.

All these are of the form: y=mx%2Bb


You should know that these all describe lines.


Moreover, m=the slope of the resulting line, and b=the y intercept.


The slope and the y-intercept provide sufficient information to uniquely determine a line.
